Welcome to WWE Main Event, the house that Curt Hawkins built.

Gran Metalik vs. Tony Nese: Metalik runs wild, hitting head scissors and dropkicks. Nese fires back, but Metalik cuts him off and heads up top. The moonsault eats feet and that allows Nese to take control, working a body scissors. Metalik escapes and fights to his feet, but Nese stuns him off of the ropes. Nese then misses a springboard moonsault. Metalik sends him to the floor and hits a corkscrew dive, wiping out Nese. Nese keeps fighting back, hits an enziguri and sets Metalik up top. He follows, but Metalik crotches him on the ropes and follows with a RANA; the Metalik diver finishes it. Gran Metalik defeated Tony Nese @ 5:43 via pin [***] This was a good little match, these two know each other well and absolutely made the best of their limited time.

– Back to Raw for highlights of the great gauntlet match that kicked off and ran for almost two hours. If you haven’t seen the match, Seth Rollins was awesome in it. They aired about 16-minutes of the match via clips here. You can read my Raw Review at this link.

The Revival vs. Heath Slater and Rhyno: Slater and Dawson into begin. They work some solid back and forth, and then Dash tags in. Dash cuts off Slater with a back elbow, but manages to fight off the double teams. Rhyno now tags in and they work double team and clear the Revival to the floor. Post break, and Slater tags in and runs wild with knee strikes and kicks. The neck breaker follows for 2. Rhyno gets pulled to the floor, Dawson with a cheap shot and shatter machine finishes Slater. The Revival defeated Heath Slater and Rhyno @ 5:16 via pin [**] This was an ok match, with the right team winning. Once again, the editing on the second match felt odd, as if they cut out a portion and jumped back in at a bad time.

– Back to Raw for Bayley, Sasha Banks, & Mickie James vs. Alexa Bliss, Mandy Rose, & Sonya Deville. JIP as Rose now works an abdominal stretch, and hits a gut wrench suplex for 2. Deville back in and lays in kicks and strikes on James. James hits a head scissors, and Deville cuts off the tag, Rose tags in as Bliss refuses. James cuts of Rose & Deville with a double neck breaker. James tags in Banks, Bliss in as well with Banks running wild. She hits meteora to Deville on the floor, back in and double knees and a meteora follows on Bliss. Bayley takes out Rose, but Bliss slams banks to the buckles but Banks locks on the banks statement for the win. Bayley, Sasha Banks, & Mickie James defeated Alexa Bliss, Mandy Rose, & Sonya Deville via submission [**] This was an ok at best match, with the mistakes and overall lack of heat hurting it. Absolution beats down the faces and then James saves Bliss and they work together and double DDT Deville. James & Bliss are friends to close the show. You can read my Raw Review at this link.

– End scene.
